All everyone sees, hears and reads about is the pandemic, etc. One would have to be living under a rock for the past 2 months + to be that clueless that things are different. It's impossible that so many people are that oblivious to signs and rules. Seriously, it's NOT rocket science, people. TRY to just be AWARE of your surroundings and behaviors in public for the safety and sake of ALL Humans. It's really not that hard to do - things are just different now. Pay attention and deal with it.
Also, really sick of those rude, insensitive, thoughtless ones who call cautious, immuno-compromised people "maskies." Just because you are in perfect health and/or don't care if you get the virus, doesn't make it okay for you endanger the rest of us who have to risk going out for necessary essentials.
Everything is a matter of perspective. The NEEDS of people who are sick and dying, have other health issues, have loved ones dying in locked down facilities, have lost jobs or businesses, are struggling to get by to put food on the table, are putting themselves at risk for essential jobs taking care of everyone else, etc. certainly TRUMPS the WANTS of the entitled, retired Villagers who are boohooing about pickleball, pools, softball, rec centers, golf, entertainment, yada, yada, yada. Sure makes you sound narcissistic.
Why can't you be grateful that you have a safe comfortable roof over your head and amuse yourself at home? The sooner everyone cooperates and does their part, the sooner the temporary inconvenience ends. Things may never return to the way they were before coronavirus, but we can adjust to the new normal. This pandemic should be a wake up call to us all.
